Had my 1st trial session of pilates class offered by my company.
Wow, never know that there is so much stretching involved! This morning, over breakfast, we talked about doing sit-and-reach for our yearly fitness test in our pri. and sec. school which I recalled that I never passed my overall fitness test except for one year, either in sec. 2 or 3 after 1-2 hours of warming up with my P.E. teacher gaving me good instructions and did it without cheating and help from others. That's the only year I managed to pass the test.
1 hour of pilates taught me how to tuck in my stomach and have a good posture. It embraces some graceful movements and toning of muscles. But the worst part is to reach for our toes etc.. Really cannot take it.. It is not above getting the prefect move but rather, the mindset to forcus, self-control and correct inhale + exhale of air. Even the instructor was kind enough to tell us that we should do a bit of read up and do it at home, without attending courses is good enough. For once, doing is better than seeing. It's tough!!
After the class, I rushed over the bridal shop. We managed to view over 8 albums and decide on our photographer. To be honest, I am impressed with their skill. They are so good but you need to think thru, compare and select the style of photography. In the end, we decided with my initial choice - there is some special capture he has in the shots he takes. We managed to secure the MUA too for both days (PS and AD). To think, I was so worried that I nearly cried. What a relief!
Direct clarification resolved all issues. We also managed to get more corsages and thank you cards. As for additional gown, I read from forum that they are generous with outfits. But my co-ordinator is correct. More outfits means more photos = more money spend. He only recommended the we wear the kua for this is once in a life to wear such outfit. If we dont like the photo, we dont to have select it. Stick to what we want. Overall, we are still very pleased with their service and their frankness in assisting us.
A piece of very good advice - to be happy and enjoy the whole process.
